Can not exit after solve finished when use command line solve on windows
I'm using HiGHS 1.8.1 (git hash: 4a7f24ac6): Copyright (c) 2024 HiGHS under MIT licence terms on commandline on Windows server 2019.
If the --time_limit=100 parameter is added, the execution will hang and not exit after solve finished.
Solve without --time_limit=100 param

Does this happen with v1.9.0, and/or if you set threads=1?
Does this happen with v1.9.0, and/or if you set threads=1?
Thanks for your reply.
Version 1.9.0 (git hash: 66f735e60) still experiences the same situation, but with a lower probability, occurring approximately once in every ten times.
When the number of threads is set to 1, the hanging issue does not occur again.
